Playing the previous three seasons in Baltimore Ravens jersey, cornerback Corey Ivy joined the Pittsburgh Steelers this season. After playing only one game with the Steelers, he returned to the Ravens’ roster, in time for Sunday’s pivotal AFC North showdown between the Ravens and the Steelers.
Sounds like a spy story and I am sure he has a unique perspective on the rivalry between the two teams.
“He understands how to play in the slot as a nickel in our defense, knows the calls, knows the structure, knows how we pattern reads,” Ravens coach John Harbaugh said regarding Ivy. “Plus he’s in great shape.”
The 32-year-old cornerback is regarded as a physical special-teams contributor and a savvy reserve defensive back. Although being undersized at 5-foot-9, 190 pounds, Ivy has recorded 209 career tackles, 9 1/2 sacks, three interceptions, six forced fumbles and one fumble recovery to go with his 97 special-teams tackles.
